Best Answer

Front caliper pistons can be compressed by hand using a clamp on the old brake pad, etc.

Rear caliper pistons on this model Mustang need to be "twisted" back into place using a special tool. Go to your local parts tool and ask for brake caliper reset tool and they should know what you mean.

The idea here is that you use the special tool to turn the piston while applying force to push it back.

Having problems with a sticky caliper on a 1996 Nissan sx?

Floating calipers can bind on the mounting hardware, causing them to wear one pad instead of both, usually you can clean up the caliper pins or replace them. rear calipers with emergency brakes can have cables seize, replacing cables is the only fix The caliper can stick if it is overextended, replacing the brake pads and checking to make sure the rotor is not worn too far may solve the problem. If the pads and rotor are not worn the caliper may need to be replaced.
